Welcome back to our R&B Season<\/em> playlist, whose latest update has a hefty selection of new genre-adjacent releases to dive into. Mariah Carey<\/a> is leading the way with her new album Here For It All<\/em>,<\/a> which brings back the pristine and wondrous soul sensibilities she’s legendary for.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n While there are a few highlights to discuss, none caused as much conversation as “Play This Song,” a collaboration with rumored flame Anderson .Paak<\/a>. Carey’s charismatic vocal performance, the clean sheen of the production, and the dreamy instrumentation and song structure tell you everything you need to know about this LP.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Elsewhere on R&B Season<\/em>, we also wanted to celebrate Syd for her new single “GMFU,”<\/a> which is a very brief but nonetheless catchy jam. The singer comes off as soft but fed-up on this cut, which is bolstered by peppy hand percussion and an intoxicating lead melody.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n We’re looking forward to what the Odd Future<\/a> alum has in store in the future, whether it’s solo material or new music with The Internet<\/a>. She recently told TMZ<\/em> that they’re working on new music, and that Steve Lacy is also excited about this link-up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n <\/span> <\/p>\n Next on R&B Season<\/em>, we wanted to slow things down a bit by talking about this new “Move” record, a collaboration between Tiara Thomas and H.E.R. This carries some sultry R&B tendencies like resonant bass, a slow-burning beat, and ethereal background vocals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Also, both artists show off chemistry between their smoky and sultry croons, eventually harmonizing in spacey fashion. But if you’re looking for something more peppy, you’re not far off from a confident but still soulful offering.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nHNHH R&B Season<\/em> Playlist<\/h2>\n
